Nothing that I planned.
But I:
Went to the chiropractor.
Did my morning chores.
Soaked some pinto beans for cooking this weekend.
Tried on various costume-y type clothes to try to decide what to be for Halloween.
Gave up to the fact that Jack was not going to nap and instead -
Ran errands - picked up my shoes from shoe repair shop, went to Target in a never ending search for diapers that Will won't leak thru (even cloth won't work), returned library books. FInally returned dream shoes back to Zappos, went to bank.
Washed some sheep's wool that we got from Lake Farm School. My house smells like dirty sheep and I love it! This will take several rinses, then we'll start picking it (and hope to eventually card it). Its drying over the playstands now.
Made an ax out of wood (for the handle) and cardboard (for the ax - smart mama) for Will for what should be his Fireman costume, but now it seems he wants to be a Wood Cutter. We'll see. He was so excited.
Cleaned and vacuumed out my messy car.
Made breakfast (oatmeal, yogurt and honey), lunch (okay, leftover chicken and rice) and dinner (bowtie pasta with pesto and spinach) for my family,
I have a clean kitchen now. Mark has promised to empty the dishwasher. Place bets now.
And of course add the various mothering tasks of changing diapers, nursing, wiping bottoms, changing clothes, putting on shoes and coats half a dozen times (an hour), and cleaning up spills, and tending to boo-boos. But now both my boys are in dreamland.
What I really wanted to do was just sit down and have a few minutes to ... think.
That is usually the one task that never seems to get accomplished each day. : )
And now, I am too tired to do it.

I know so often I look back on my day and wonder what I did.....and am often (or not often enough) reminded that what I DIDN'T do was go to work for someone else and leave my kids behind. THAT is something to stop and think about, isn't it? Aren't we FLIPPING lucky?!!?
Oh, and I'm in a PANIC! Do WE need to dress up on Tuesday....is it optional? I've not worn a costume is SO long....I wouldn't know where to start. I saw your post, and heard Katie say something the other day. Now I'm WORRIED!
